Chapter 5 Mister, It Was the Doctor Who Saved You
Eden wanted to leave because she had something to do, but the nurse asked her to keep an eye on the man's condition. She had no choice but to finish what she had started. She could leave when the man's family arrived.
Eden dozed off beside the hospital bed while she waited.
Victor Alwynn, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes slightly and looked around with his deep gaze. He was in the hospital.
Suddenly, a phone started ringing, and the ringtone kept repeating the same lyrics.
Victor heard the noisy ringtone of the phone and frowned in annoyance.
Eden took out her cell phone from her backpack after she heard the familiar ringtone. She did not look up.
"Hello! Ricky." Her voice sounded a little hoarse from sleep.
"Mum, I’m Gia." Her daughter's displeased voice rang out from the phone's speaker.
Eden became a little more awake. "Gia, what's wrong?"
"I’ve arrived. Gia, you don’t have to worry.” After listening to her daughter's instructions, Eden gently murmured in response.
Eden exercised her sore arms after she ended the call and stretched in an indecent manner. When she looked up, she suddenly noticed that the man on the bed had already woken up. She frowned slightly and finished her stretch nonchalantly before she slowly stood up.
She said in an indifferent voice, "Mister, I should go now that you're awake. You can call your family to come over and take care of you!"
"Were you the person who saved me?" Victor said in a low but powerful voice.
He looked at the beautiful woman in front of him. She had wavy brown hair, delicate and beautiful facial features, and a pair of large eyes that were unusually clear. She had a sweet body scent that smelled like flowers, and her white dress was stained with blood.
Victor had seen all kinds of women, but he had never seen such a pure and beautiful woman. Why did her eyes look so familiar to him?
"Mister, it was the doctor who saved you. I just made an emergency call and got a ride to the city. Goodbye!"
Eden glanced at the time. It was already past six o’clock, and she could not get to Ricky’s piano competition on time. She was not offended by Victor’s hostile attitude either.
She turned around and left in a hurry.
Victor stared intently at the woman as she left without any hesitation.
His lips curled into a cold smile. No woman had ever ignored him like this before.
Besides, this woman's answer was quite interesting.
As Eden got off the escalator, a handsome man dressed in a suit was running up the escalator that was going up.
Eden looked down at her phone. It was already past six o'clock. She glanced at the location that her son had sent her and smiled slightly. Her son's performance was about to start, so she had to go there quickly.
"Victor, you're here. I’ve gone to half of the hospitals in River City to find you." Anson Skye panted and looked at Victor, who was lying on the hospital bed with an indifferent expression.
"Someone did something to the car brake. Investigate the matter when you return," Victor told Anson coldly and angrily. A murderous glint flashed past his deep-set eyes, and he gave out a dreary aura.
Anson nodded with a serious expression.
"I'm sorry, mister. I left something here." Eden ran back breathlessly.
Victor smiled mockingly. This woman was playing hard to get with him.
After Eden left the hospital, she realized that she did not take the handkerchief with her.
She lowered her head and looked around anxiously. It was a gift from her daughter, and it was very important to her.
"No!" Eden rubbed her forehead anxiously. She remembered that she had been holding it in her hand all along.
She quickly knelt down and looked under the bed, but she found nothing.
